And I even provided web-links for ya! So, now you have to.
I've had both of these for quite a while (4+ months), but have been listening to them a lot lately, and thought I'd recommend them while I can.
The first song is a reminder of why Superdrag was such a special band. This was a b-side from their 1999 "In The Valley Of Dying Stars" sessions. It later surfaced on the Japanese release in 2000. This year, (5 years after being recorded, no less) it will be released on their B-Sides/Rarities compilation due out on Arena Rock. This song is so great, it's hard to believe it was left off any record.

This next song was recorded (every single instrument), and mixed by Scott Freeman (formerly of Sullen). The song has become one of my favorites just because if I'm feeling sad about something, I feel this track actually illustrates my mood perfectly. Its weird. I can't really explain it too well, but I like it a lot.

People wonder why I was into Sullen so damn much - well, I will tell you why:
Since their dissolution in early 2004, all 3 members have gone their seperate ways and are writing some amazing music. Most bands are only backed by one main writer, while Sullen had 3 great ones, yet their own style. Their music was a creative labyrinth (if you will) of different styles merged into one, with certain tracks showing each member's strong points. This is what made The Beatles great back in the 60s, and is pretty rare today among artists, which is sad. Sullen had that, but couldn't work out personal issues to continue as a band.
In other Sullen-related news, Shanna has moved out to LA - so the hopes of a Sullen reunion of any kind in future-time might be tough to come by.
I still think they will all play together again someday.
I can hope, anyway.
Enjoy the 2 tracks, and sorry for the rants. If you liked them, please let me know.
